Fat experiences

Most of my weight goes to my belly, so bending over is very hard. Can't tie shoes, clip my nails, and putting on socks is a huge struggle. I've got myself a grabber/extended claw at home just to pick stuff off the floor.
Last time I went to an amusement park I was going on a ride where you pull down a harness/bar from above and buckle it between your legs. One of the workers had to physically push it down to fit over my belly 🙈
Many chairs are becoming snug, and a lot of booths are just a complete no-no.
Just reaching parts of my own body, not just my feet, is an issue. My sideboobs and upper arms have both gotten so big and soft they push off against each other making it harder to reach anywhere below my navel 😅

Omg, yes! I was gonna make a drawing on A3 paper, the customer wanted it vertical, and I could barely reach over my belly to draw. My desk is up against the wall, so at least it can't be pushed back 😅

Bending all the way over.
I lost a lot of flexibility because I could exerize when I first killed my ankle.
Now with losing flexibility and my gut, Its really hard to put on shoes.

Not sue if this is a limitation but...
The whole clothes thing was limiting in that i didnt want to go out after about 30+ lbs gained

nothing fit and my work was scaled back so i didnt have money to buy new clothes.
even had to give um my membership to this site.

Tying one’s shoes is definitely the biggest hardship when the waistline belly (like mine) gets larger :-)

If you want to hold onto pants longer, you could always order a few sizes up and then use a belt to keep them on. Then your pants would last and you'd get to feel as you slowly fill out more and more pants that were once a bit too big for you, as they begin to fit without a belt before becoming too tight on your growing body

The first thing that I noticed when i hit 350lbs around 17/18 was that I couldnt walk for longer than a minute without feeling like my back was about to break. Also, I couldnt fit in certain chairs and had to make sure it could hold my weight if I had never sat in it before.

i use handicap ones for this reason myself


Stairs, booths, bending over, tieing shoes picking things up off the ground, getting up off the ground, up off the couch, getting out and in the suv, etc

Right now its currently stairs or step ladders tbh

Anything remotely physical has me short of breathe which is weird feeling having been a long distance runner for so many years
